Customer Reviews The North Face Jozie Purna

These are so cute, but the instep was much too shallow for me! I had a hard time getting my feet in with only a thin pair of socks. I'm sadly returning these as I thought they were adorable and super functional!

Don't like shoes that make your toes curl upward. Never understood why they make shoes like that. Too bad otherwise a nice boot.

First of all, I have a narrow foot, especially extra narrow heel with rounder toes section, and my calves are wider, so I knew this boot might not work for me, and they did not. I was disappointed because they look well made and were the most attractive to me of the three boots I ordered to try. I actually guessed on any of those multiple choice answers for sizing, because I could not get my foot into the boot, even after adjusting the lacing a lot, the way it laces up the back and side looks great but did not open the boot in a way I could push my foot in to see if it was just due to newness, and whether the upper would be okay.

I bought these boots for Colorado snow, yet they did not meet my requirements. A few days after receiving them, it snowed for an entire week, and temperatures were in the single and teen digits. Unfortunately, these boots are not warm based on my standards. I was wearing wool socks, and my toes felt cold, it seems like the upper material (part of the shoe) lets the cold in. Additionally, the back tongue is not stitched all the way up, so tightening the laces is a must, but either way some slush can get in it, and cold air as well. The boots are not necessarily comfortable, I walked with them for quite a while and it was like walking on hardwood. I decided to go to a North Face store as well and tried on the Shellista Lace Luxe and I recommend those boots instead. They immediately warmed my cold toes, and I tested them in the snow as well and they did not let the cold get to my toes. Plus the entire inside is has more padding all throughout, including the shoe part, which is a difference when compared to these Purna boots. Of course, we all vary in product requirements, so take this with a grain of salt and find what best suits you. Side note, I rarely write reviews, and when I do, it is because the product is a high involvement product that requires evaluation of alternatives. I hope this helps!

Had a huge open slit in the back. I can only foresee snow wedging itself in there and driving me mad. The boots themselves are very cute, and are very flattering. They felt narrow, I have another pair of NF boots same size and they fit my wide feet like a glove. These are narrow and felt like my feet were resting in the wrong places if that makes sense. Cute, but bad for actual snow and wide feet.

So disappointed! Boots look cute, but when I put them on they were very small and tight. It almost felt as if they were on the wrong feet (they weren't!). It was also awkward having the tongue in the back and having to lace up the back. Sending back.

I am sorry to say I was disappointed with these boots. They are flimsy, and I do not like how the back is a flap that can move around if the boots aren't tight enough. I am returning the boots.

Such a pretty boot and a super weight but I couldn't get my foot through the narrow ankle. I'm a very regular size foot and ankle but even going up a size these were no good.
